Congratulations to the 2014 Dressage Award winners who were recognised last night at the Equestrian NSW Awards Night.
The evening got off to a stormy start when a fierce storm hit the venue as people were arriving. Things settled down and eventually all managed to get in out of the driving rain and enjoy the festivities.
With the change to the age requirements for the national Adult Amateur Owner/Rider Scheme riders under 21 are no longer eligible to compete as part of the AOR Scheme.
To encourage, support and recognise riders under 21 years, Dressage NSW will introduce a Clarendon Young Rider Leaderboard similar to the Clarendon Adult Amateur Rider Scheme.
